Republicans Against Bush?
I haven’t followed the whole Dubai port thing enough to have an opinion, but it’s striking that some Republicans see this as part of a pattern of abuse from the White House.
“This was a sound business decision,” said a senior Republican operative of the Dubai deal, “and an absolutely inept political decision. But this is what happens when you’ve spent five and a half years telling your Republican friends to go screw themselves.”

Even right-wing whackos like Michelle Malkin are raising a stink. Though yesterday Rush Limbaugh accused opponents of it of racism:
Isn’t it ironic that we have this dumb, Texas rube, frat boy defending tolerance and the rights of minorities, and we have the Democratic Party and the nuanced elitist, smarter than everyone else in the room liberals acting on blind racism and profiling?
(Emphasis added.) Read the whole thing here. I guess Malkin is now a liberal.

If you think like this: .. “right-wing whackos like Michelle Malkin,” you truly have to be a card carrying member of the Communist Party of Amerika. Good luck.

I’ve started several companies, created millions of dollars in shareholder value for my investors (many of whom are investing again in my newest venture) and grew up in a household that 1) received Christmas cards from the Reagans and 2) was instrumental in helping Newt Gingrich get elected to for the very first time to Congress in the late 70s. Does that sound like pedigree of a Communist to you?
